Tie — An input-to-output connection.
Set of ties — An input tied to 2 or more outputs.
Confi guration — One or more ties or sets of ties.
Current confi guration — The currently active
confi guration (also called confi guration 0).
Global preset — A confi guration that has been
stored. One global preset can be assigned
